Charge shielding effects of PEG bound to NH2-terminated PAMAM dendrimers – an experimental approach

Abstract

An experimental technique to probe intramolecular interactions of PEG–PAMAM conjugates and surface charge presentation. Increasing PEG chain length increases non-covalent shielding, but increasing chain density decreases PEG surface association.
